Do you want to get a new Pokémon to exchange for another Pokémon? Do you want to hatch Pokémon eggs quickly because you have to do other work? This guide will help you hatch Pokémon eggs for the Pokémon games released from 2004 to the present.
Step
Method 1 of 6: Hatching Pokémon Eggs in Old Pokémon Games
Step 1. Get Pokémon eggs by keeping two of the same Pokémon or saving Ditto and non-Legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Day Care
You have a chance to get an egg every time you walk 255 steps.
Step 2. Get a Pokémon that has Magma Armor or Flame Body abilities
Slugma, Magcargo, Magby, Magmar, Magmortar Litwick, Lampent, Chandelure, Larvesta, and Volcarona have this ability. Litwick, Lampent, and Chandelure have a chance to acquire the Flash Fire or Flame Body abilities. Therefore, make sure the Pokémon has a Flame Body, not a Flash Fire.
Step 3. Include a Pokémon that has the Flame Body or Magma Armor ability in your party (the lineup of Pokémon brought by players)
Magma Armor and Flame Body halve the number of egg cycles (an indicator that determines how many steps the player must take to hatch an egg). This way, you can hatch eggs more efficiently and quickly.
Step 4. Hatch the Pokémon eggs by cycling
To hatch Pokémon eggs faster, you can cycle in a large area that isn't overcrowded by trees or other obstacles. You can hatch Pokémon eggs by biking at the breeding lines in Mauville (Hoenn region), Solaceon (Sinnoh region), and Cycling Road (Kanto region). You can check the progress of hatching eggs by checking them in the Pokémon summary menu.
Method 2 of 6: Hatching Pokémon Eggs in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
Step 1. Find the mud-filled area
Step 2. Use the Acro Bike to try to ride the avalanche resistance
If you use the Acro Bike to go through a muddy area, you will slip back to your original position. However, the game will still record all the steps you take while cycling even if you slip or walk in place. That way, you can hatch eggs quickly just by pressing the D-pad (directional pad) button.
Unfortunately, this glitch has been fixed in Pokémon Emerald. Therefore, you should drive the breeding line in Mauville. However, you can still use this method to hatch eggs in the fourth generation of Pokémon games
Method 3 of 6: Hatching Pokémon Eggs in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
Step 1. Go to Fuego Ironworks which is near Floaroma Town
Step 2. Find an area of tiles with arrows facing the wall
Step 3. Place the character next to the wall
After that, move the character towards the tile that pushes you against the wall. This will make the character run continuously. You can put heavy items on the D-pad button (directional pad) for the character to run automatically. Do this step as long as possible.
Method 4 of 6: Hatching Pokémon Eggs in Pokémon X and Y
To hatch Pokémon eggs in Pokémon X and Y, you can try this method
Step 1. Get Ditto
You can catch a Ditto of any gender. Ditto can be bred with any Pokémon because it has the ability to imitate other Pokémon.
Step 2. Save Ditto and other Pokémon you want to mate in Pokémon Day Care which is on Route 7
Step 3. Find the magnificent house where Furfrou is located
You will find a great yard near you. Use a bicycle to get around the yard. After that, head back to Pokémon Day Care to get your eggs.
Step 4. Return to the yard and cycle around the yard until the eggs hatch
Method 5 of 6: Hatch Eggs in Pokémon GO without Walking
Step 1. Keep your phone on the bicycle wheel
Turn the bike over and keep the phone between the spokes. Move the bicycle pedal with your hand to turn the wheel. This way, the Pokémon Go app will think you're walking and record your phone's movements. This allows you to incubate your own eggs.
Step 2. Stick the phone on the fan
You can stick your phone to the blades of a floor fan or ceiling fan using masking tape. Make sure you attach the phone to the fan blades tightly and carefully. When the fan is turned on, the Pokémon Go app will log the movement of the phone. This will allow you to incubate the eggs.
- If you're using a floor fan, make sure the base of the fan doesn't wobble and can support the weight of the phone.
- The further away the phone is from the center of the fan, the farther away Pokémon Go records.
Step 3. Place the phone on the record player
When the record player is turned on, your phone will spin over the record and Pokémon Go will think you're walking and record your phone's movements.
Step 4. Place the phone on top of the Roomba
As you know, you can hatch Pokémon eggs more quickly by placing your phone on an object moving in the same direction. Roomba is a vacuum cleaner that moves automatically. You can place your phone on top of the device to hatch Pokémon eggs faster and easier while cleaning the floor.
Step 5. Place the phone on a toy train that moves on a circular track
You can reduce the speed of the train if needed. Keep the toy train moving until the Pokémon eggs hatch. This tip was discovered by a Twitter user who hails from Japan.
Step 6. Start the Pokémon Go app when you are stuck in traffic
Turning on Pokémon Go can ease your boredom when stuck in traffic. If the speed of the car is below 30 km per hour, the application will record the movement of the phone and increase the progress of hacking eggs. However, it's best not to drive a car while playing Pokémon Go. You can start this application and save it in another place that does not disturb your concentration while driving the car.
Step 7. Tie the phone around the dog's body
To do this you will need to strap the phone around the body of a medium-sized dog. After that, let your dog walk. However, make sure you keep an eye on your dog to prevent others from stealing your phone.
Step 8. Tie the phone on the drone body
You can hatch eggs by tying your phone to the drone's body.
Step 9. Disable Google Maps
Disabling Google Maps will cause a glitch in the phone's location detection feature installed in the Pokémon Go app. This glitch will make your character walk erratically near your location even when you're not walking.
Method 6 of 6: Hatching Pokémon Eggs in Pokémon GO
Step 1. Get the Pokémon eggs
You'll need to find Pokémon eggs before you hatch them in Pokémon Go. To get eggs, you must walk to the nearest PokéStop and activate it by spinning the Pokémon medal in the middle of the PokéStop. Some items will appear on the screen. You have a chance to get a Pokémon egg from one of these items. Tap the egg to get it. If the PokéStop you're visiting doesn't give you an egg, go to another blue PokéStop and try again.
Step 2. Check the time it takes for the eggs to hatch
Once you get your eggs, it's a good idea to find out how long it will take for them to hatch by following these steps:
- Open the list of items you have by tapping the PokéBall at the bottom of the screen.
- Tap the "Pokémon" button.
- Tap the "Eggs" option at the top right of the screen.
- Find and tap your egg. On the screen, the egg will display the following indicator showing how far you have to walk to hatch the egg (in kilometers): 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km.
Step 3. Incubate the eggs using the incubator
Once you get the eggs, you can use the incubator you got at the start of the game or purchased at the PokéShop to hatch the eggs. Here are the steps that must be taken to incubate eggs using an incubator:
- Look for eggs as previously described.
- Tap the egg you want to hatch.
- Select the "Incubate" option to start the incubation process.
Step 4. Walk according to the distance shown on the egg
If the egg shows "5 km" on the screen, you will have to walk 5 km to hatch it. You can walk, run, bike and surfboard to hatch eggs. After walking the specified distance, the phone screen will display the message "Oh?" and the Pokémon eggs will hatch.
- You must walk the specified distance while opening the Pokémon Go app.
- You cannot incubate eggs if you drive at a speed of more than 30 km per hour.
- Pay attention to your surroundings when walking while using the Pokémon Go app.
- The further the distance you have to go, the rarer the Pokémon you get from the eggs.
Step 5. Hatch another egg after hatching the egg
Note that some types of incubators can only be used a certain number of times. Therefore, make sure you make the most of this item.
To hatch several eggs at a time, you can purchase additional incubators at the PokéShop
Tips
-
Breeding Lines.
Breeding Lines are long, unobstructed roads that you can cross by walking or cycling. Usually you can walk 150 steps on this path. The Solaceon Breeding Line is on the right side of the road that connects the city of Solaceon. You have to use a Mach Bike to get through the muddy areas. The Mauville breeding line is at the top of Pokémon Day Care.
- After getting the eggs, you can visit Goldenrod city to cycle there and incubate the eggs. Check the Pokémon summary menu for egg hatching progress.
- Observe your gaming device and increase the volume to the maximum limit. It's a good idea to keep your gaming device on a table near your computer. That way, you can do other things on your computer while hatching eggs.
